WORTHAM CENTER PRESENTS
God is a Scottish Drag Queen
In an unforgettable comedy of biblical proportions, God, dressed in a floral powersuit, has descended to Earth to let off some steam — and, in the process, he skewers everything from Justin Bieber to the Pope. The work of acclaimed Canadian comedian Mike Delamont, God is a Scottish Drag Queen has won 18 “Best of Fest” awards at festivals across the continent, prompting some audiences to wait hours in line for tickets to this not-to-miss show. In a thick Scottish accent, God attempts to clear up a few misconceptions about himself and his role as the Almighty — and, peering over the rim of his reading glasses, he struggles to remain calm about his creation’s misdeeds.

Special guest: Andy Sandford is a comedian who got funny in Atlanta, moved to New York City, established himself as one if NY’s top tier comics and moved back to Atlanta in 2021 to record his latest album with 800lbs Gorilla Records. It’s called “Basket Case” and comes out June 10th. Andy has performed his jokes on Conan and The Late Late Show with James Corden.

Sandford even played an animated version of himself on Adult Swim’s Aqua Teen Hunger Force. The Village Voice called him, “one of New York’s comedic gems;” a nice gesture, but not enough to keep him in New York. Andy is out of Atlanta now (sorry NY).
Kylie Vincent is a 22 year old stand-up, activist, and theater artist in New York City, currently traveling with her solo show BIRD and performing stand-up across the United States. New York audiences say Vincent is “a hilarious, thoughtful, badass” and BIRD is “honest, hilarious and tear jerking.” Vincent has sold out her solo show in Los Angeles (Lyric Hyperion Theatre), Austin (Fallout Theatre), & as a guest artist at LSU & Sewanee University. Other favorite credits include Adult Swim, NBC, Amsterdam Tour & headlining in Atlanta.
Host Cody Hughes is a comedian who cut his teeth in Chicago and Atlanta. He is now based out of West North Carolina and tours the Southeast. He has opened for Lewis Black, John Oliver and Maria Bamford among others and hosts the regular Slice of Life Comedy shows at The Orange Peel’s Pulp Lounge.

Drew Morgan (Comedy Central) and DJ Lewis (CMT) are coming to touch your hearts and butts (with permission) at Asheville Beauty Academy!
Co-hosts of the world wide phenomenon Into the Abiscuit Podcast, DJ Lewis and Drew Morgan are gonna so some stand up and change the world.
You know us, you hate us, and you want to die from laughing – well this night is for you. Come on out, y’all.
Drew Morgan is the first person in his family to go into comedy. His act has been described as “Mark Twain on acid,” and that pretty much gets at it. Hailing from Sunbright, Tennessee, which has a population of about 597 good people and 3 really shitty ones, he was raised by a preacher and a librarian. This explains Drew’s curiosity and constant state of existential crisis.
Drew has been featured on MTV, Comedy Central and ABC’s the View. He tours nationally with the wellRED comedy tour and is the Co-author of the book “The Liberal Redneck Manifesto.” He is a good dancer.
D.j. Lewis is the co host of Into the Abiscuit and travels around the south doing comedy. His comedy is much like a canned meat, not very pretty to look at, understood mostly by poor people, and best when baked.
A rapper, actor, singer and part time astronaut – DJ has been featured on CMT and is the only man to have ever owned a space possum.
